EXPLANATORY NOTE

Medallion Financial Corp. (the Company) hereby amends its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2013, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 5, 2014 (the Original Form 10-K). The Company is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (this Amendment) solely to change an incorrect date
contained in the last paragraph of the electronic version of WeiserMazars LLPs Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm (the Report) relating to the financial statements included in the Original Form 10-K from March
5, 2013 to March 5, 2014. The manually signed copy of the Report that was received by the Company from WeiserMazars LLP did not contain the aforementioned scriveners error.

This Amendment speaks as of the filing date of the Original Form 10-K, does not reflect events that have occurred after the filing date of the
Original Form 10-K and does not amend, modify or update in any way disclosures made in the Original Form 10-K except as set forth in this explanatory note.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Medallion Financial Corp.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Medallion Financial Corp. and subsidiaries (the Company), including the
consolidated summary schedule of investments, as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in net assets, and cash flows for each of the three years in the three-year period ended
December 31, 2013 and the selected financial ratios and other data (see note 13) for each of the five years in the five-year period ended December 31, 2013. We have also audited the consolidated schedules of investments in and advances to
affiliates as of and for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. These consolidated financial statements, selected financial ratios and other data, and schedules are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements, selected financial ratios and other data, and schedules based on our audits.

We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated
financial statements, selected financial ratios and other data, and schedules are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.
Our procedures included physical inspection or confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2013 and 2012. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our
opinion, the consolidated financial statements and the selected financial ratios and other data referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and
the consolidated results of their operations, changes in net assets, and cash flows for each of the three years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2013 and the selected financial ratios and other data for each of the five years in the
five-year period ended December 31, 2013, in conformity with US generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the consolidated schedules of investments in and advances to affiliates, when considered in relation to the basic
consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

We have also audited, in
accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on the criteria established in Internal
Control-Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated March 5, 2014 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the
Companys internal control over financial reporting.
